Degustazione eccellente, proprietari affabili e competenti

2/1/24
Ottimi vini e degustazione: una bella chiacchierata sui vini proposti, risposte esaudienti a tutte le domande, proprietari affabili, gentili e molto alla mano e competenti. Anche gli accompagnamenti sono stati abbondanti. Eravamo per altro un gruppo numeroso, ma la gestione ed organizzazione sono state eccellenti.

About Winery and Wines

The Tosi Family Winery is located in Montescano, a town in the first hills of Oltrepò Pavese, between Stradella and Santa Maria della Versa. Wine production first started in the ’60s with siblings, Piero and Agostino, buying small lots of land. Through hard work and dedication, they started a new adventure in the wine and agricultural business.

Their passion, commitment, and love for their land will soon prove to be a source of satisfaction. The winery has been managed by Agostino’s sons, Massimo and Giuseppe for the past twenty years. They work with the same passion as their father did and are personally involved in the management of the vineyards and all the enological operations from bottling to sales.

The vineyards consist of 15 ha, mostly located in the municipality of Montù Beccaria and some in the nearby hills of Montescano and Castana. The main varietals cultivated are Croatina, Pinot Nero (50% of the total surface), White Riesling, WelschRiesling, and Barbera (30% of the total surface). The rest consists of Malvasia Bianca di Candia, Moscato, and some local varietals like Vespolina and Uva Rara. Croatina is a red grape local variety with a high content of polyphenols (natural antioxidants), in particular tannins. This grape is used to make for an easy-drinking wine like Bonarda dell’Oltrepò Pavese and also to make excellent, first-rate wines to be aged for a long period, like Rosso Oltrepò and Buttafuoco.

Pinot Noir is a red grape that produces wonderful wines but at the same time is very difficult to grow and to vinify. In Oltrepò Pavese it is either used to make very smooth, ruby red, red wines, with hints of rose flowers and wild berries or to make white base sparkling wines. Oltrepò Pavese is the third most important area in the world for the cultivation of this important grape. We focus a lot of our attention on this varietal through research and experimental cloning. Pinot Noir is considered by most wine experts and critics worldwide, to be the noblest wine. The Welsch Riesling is a white grape with a medium yield. The wine obtained is straw yellow with greenish reflections, fruity, and slightly mineral. It is often used for sparkling wines. The Whi
